Doctors Lisa and Sara talk to Dr Joanna Bircher, Dr Nikesh Vallabh, Shelley Ryder (SWAN PCN Manager and Transformation Lead) and Dr Fran Fitton. We find out what proactive care is all about and then launch into example projects around dementia care that Shelley and Fran are involved in. We hope this gives people a flavour of what proactive care projects could entail in General Practice in terms of design and implementation.
Later in the year, we hope to bring more examples of projects and how they managed to get them off the ground.

COVID-19 Episode 12: Managing Death in the Community
Épisode 35
mercredi 1 juillet 2020 • Durée 25:21
Now that the Greater Manchester Enabling Safe Certification of Death in the Community service is being stood down, we take the opportunity to talk through the new legislation (from the Coronavirus Act 2020) and how this applies in practice.
Dr Aamna Khan (GP and Clinical Lead for the Enabling Safe Certification of Death in the community service) and Dr Viren Mehta (GP partner, clinical director of his PCN and clinical director for Stockport CCG) take us through this important subject.
They discuss:
Expected and unexpected deaths and how these should be approached
Who should be referred to the coroner and when to write COVID-19 on the death certificate
Verification of death and who can do this
Who can complete paperwork such as the death certificate and cremation forms and the criteria that now needs to be satisfied to enable this to be done
Tips on how to complete this paperwork at the moment
The ways in which the registration process has changed
Thoughts on how practices and PCNs can think about their systems to make death in the community safer and smoother for everyone involved
At the moment with increased isolation, anxiety and loneliness, social prescribing has become more important than ever.
Sara and Lisa speak to GP Dr Jaweeda Idoo (clinical champion for personalised care in Greater Manchester) and Sophie Glinka (social prescribing lead for people and communities in Greater Manchester) about the role of social prescribing during COVID-19 and indeed in general.
They talk about some case studies where social prescribing has been invaluable to the care and support of patients, and showcase the importance of this facet of community care.
